Default leaking trans

just bought a 1994 camaro V6 auto trans. Trans shifts fine but leaks fluid. The fluid is just pouring down the passengers side looks like its coming from the top of the trans about midway back. Only leaks when in gear, blocked car up and put in drive, big stream of fluid pouring down the side of the trans. Help.

Check the trans fluid cooler lines where they connect to the transmission, they have a habit of leaking.

....Also check your filler tube where it goes into the top of the case, and the tube itself for rust holes.

yea I checked those. The fluid looks like it is coming from the top side of the trans. I don't know if there are any lines on the top. muffler was too hot to try to feel the top, I'll do that tomorrow.
